About Us

Thanks so much for taking the time to visit our blog! A little about us…

We were both born and raised in Long Beach, California and met while attending Millikan High School where we became close friends.

In 2001 while Lisa was a freshman at the University of Redlands and Kevin was a freshman at California State University, Long Beach we began dating. Kevin ended up transferring to Redlands our sophomore year.

We just celebrated our 10 year anniversary at the end of October!!

While Lisa was studying abroad in Nicaragua in spring 2004 Kevin flew down to visit and proposed! In 2006 we were married in San Pedro, California.

Wedding day!

We lived in Long Beach for three years until the summer of 2009 when we got the itch to move away and try something different and ended up in San Francisco! Since we would be over 300 miles away from the majority of our family and friends, we decided to start this blog to keep everyone up-to-date with what we were up to.

Love in the bay

The best thing we did while living in San Francisco was adopt our sweet pup, Lola. She’s a 6.5 year old German Shepherd/Rottweiler mix and we love her to pieces.

Our Lola Bear

After two years of life in the city we trekked across the Bay Bridge to our new home in sunny Oakland. We needed a break from the fog, the gloom, and the chill and we’re loving life in the East Bay!

Life in the East Bay not only brought us lots more sunshine, it also brought us a bun in the oven! You can see all of my weekly pregnancy posts at this link.

Hello guys! I’m Nick from the band Noiseheads. We’re working on our debut album right now and are currently trying to finish putting together the artwork for the album cover. There is a photo of some headless mannequins on your blog that we came across through some searches that we thought would fit really well with our theme. I wanted to see if we could maybe have your permission to use the photo for our artwork! I can definitely credit you both in the linear notes, and even supply a link to your blog if you’d like. Anything to help an unsigned band get their debut album out would greatly be appreciate, and we’ll do whatever we can to benefit you guys! Feel free to reply via email: noiseheads@ymail.com – let me know what you guys’ thoughts are! Thanks!
